TORONTO Running out of bullets in their pitching staff, Tampa Bay was forced into a new plan on Monday, throwing a few no-name pitchers at the Toronto Blue Jays in hopes of survival.The plan worked perfectly, right up until the didn't. Two guys even the biggest of Rays fans knew little about righties Cooper Criswell and Javy Guerra were excellent, and JT Chargois and Colin Poche did their jobs too, with the Rays taking a one-run lead into the bottom of the eighth.But then the face we know, Jason Adam, let it all slip away. He's been the Rays' best relief pitcher all year, but the Jays didn't care about his flashy 1.26 earned run average. And when Bo Bichette
Boston Red Sox Jersey hit a two-run run homer, the Jays had stolen themselves a 3-2 victory in the first of a five-game series at Rogers Centre.It was a brutal lo s, one that was hard to swallow for the
Bobby Doerr Jersey Rays, mostly because Criswell and Guerra, two huge unknowns, were great. And Adam, who has been so good, failed to come through with the game on the line.I was really mad. I kind of blacked out a little bit, Adam said. I knew the weight of it, that I just potentially lost the game for the guys who battled so hard tonight, so that sucks. And two, there was some doubt in my mind about whether I should go with a changeup there, so that's on me. Those ones hurt.They're talented over there. I think we match up well to them. I didn't show that well tonight, but the rest of our pitching staff did.Scroll to ContinueSlider or changeup, it might not have mattered to Bichette right now, He is one of baseball's hottest players, having hit six home runs since last Monday. It was only the second blown save of the season for Adam.It spoiled what was looking like a Disney-esque kind of game, too. Criswell, who had only pitched 1 1/3 innings in the big leagues, was forced
Nathan Eovaldi Jersey into a start after coming up from Triple-A Durham. But he was terrific, retiring the first nine batters he faced.His night ended in the fourth, when he walked George Springer, allowed a single to Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and then an RBI single to Bichette. He got Alejandro Kirk to pop up, but then Rays manager Kevin Cash went to JT Chargois out of the bullpen, and he coaxed and inning-ending double play out of Teoscar Hernandez.Holding the Jays to one run in that inning was huge, because it kept the score at 1-1. (The Rays had scored first on a Jonathan Aranda RBI single). Tampa Bay took the lead in the sixth when Randy Arozarena singled and was, once again, a pest on the base paths, getting to third on a bad throw by Toronto catcher Danny Jansen. He scored on a Manuel Margot ground out to make it 2-1..It stayed that way, too. Javy Guerra, who was just called up from Durham as well, pitched a scorele s sixth
David Price Jersey inning, allowing just one hit, and Colin Poche did the same in the seventh.Bichette's homer in the eighth flipped the wild-card standings as well. The Rays, who have lost three straight games, are now 78-61, and a half-game behind both Toronto and Seattle. dropping from the fourth seed to the sixth.Tampa Bay is still 5 1/2 games ahead of Baltimore for the final playoff spot. Baltimore starts a two-game series with Washington on Tuesday night.The busy Rays are

Kyle Schwarber just couldn't take it anymore. And after getting called out on strikes by umpire Angel Hernandez on national television Sunday night, the Philadelphia Phillies completely lost it in an epic meltdown.Hernandez, who's often criticized as one of the worst umpires in baseball, mi sed calls all night long, and in the ninth inning, Schwarber reached a breaking point. After the strikeout, he went on an animated rant trying to explain how bad the Hernandez strike zone was.Schwarber took a 3-2 sinker from Brewers closer Josh Hader that he thought was off the outside corner. But it was called a strike by Hernandez for the second out of the ninth inning in a tight 1-0 game.After the call, Schwarber threw his bat and slammed his helmet in disgust, and then got into it with Hernandez. He then gestured to Hernandez, who didnt go back at him, to signal that
Jose Iglesias Jersey he mi sed calls outside, inside and high and low all game before walking back to the dugout. He came back out to tell Hernandez again how bad he was with Phillies manager Joe Girardi also pleading his case over the erratic strike zone. There were 26 strikeouts in the game.Everyone kind of saw what was going on, Schwarber said after the game. Im not here to bury anyone, but that wasnt very good. You wish that, I dont know how to really say it, it just wasnt very good.Want proof? According to umpire tracking, Hernandez mi sed 19 calls on the night, the lowest-rated umpired of the day. He mi sed one call by a season-high 6.47 inches.Schwarber's rant was witne sed by
Nick Senzel Jersey several hundred thousand people on ESPN during part of its ''Sunday Night Baseball'' national telecast. The announcing crew had his back, too.Kyle Schwarber is speaking for both sides tonight, ESPN play-by-play man Karl Ravech said. We saw a lot of those demonstrations, none like that. We saw them as players went back to the bench.Added analyst David Cone: Im surprised it took this long for somebody to have that kind of an outburst.Schwarber wasn't alone in complaining about Hernandez during the game. Milwaukee outfielder Andrew McCutchen was called out on a pitch that mi sed by several inches and just rolled his eyes in disbelief. Phillies second baseman Jean Segura questioned a strike call way inside during the fifth inning, where the ESPN on-screen display even put it up initially as ball one.Im not going to say he was
Ken Griffey Jersey good, because he wasnt, Milwaukee catcher Omar Narvaez told reporters. At least he was consistent for both teams. Sometimes youve got to adjust and dont leave the decision to the umpire.It's been a tough start for Schwarber, who signed a four-year, $79 million deal prior to the season. He has four home runs so far, but his batting average is just .169. Schwarber played six years for the Chicago Cubs and was a postseason hero. He's also played with the Washington Nationals and Boston Red Sox.He was the fourth overall pick in the 2014 MLB Draft, selected by the Chicago Cubs out of Indiana

The plan was to get back onto a mound on Monday. Cashman confirmed the left-hander did throw a bullpen, a se sion that went well."We had a lot of difficult conversations to make sure that we handle his return to play protocols properly and make sure he checks all the throwing boxes along the way which includes several bullpen se sions and a couple live batting practice se sions prior to getting

"He's certainly going in the right direction, he threw a bullpen today, feels good but unfortunately he's got a few more hurdles to clear for us to feel comfortable releasing them back into the wild."The Yankees' GM also revealed that both utility man Tyler Wade and right-hander Michael King made the big-league roster.

What was supposed to be a day of many firsts, even if they were unofficial firsts, has now turned into an eerie day that will not see the first pitch ever thrown at the new state-of-the-art ballpark.Instead, Dallas County residents are preparing for a "shelter-in-place" order given by Judge Clay Jenkins in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19).

Like a summer romance, everything has abruptly ended even if we all knew it was coming eventually, it doesn't make it any easier to deal with its harsh reality.Where the Texas Rangers are unique from others is their anticipation of this new gem that sits adjacent to their previous home for the past 26 seasons. Even though there were fans that were opposed to the replacement of Globe Life Park (neThe Ballpark in Arlington), the elimination of rain delays and scorching hot days drenched in sweat is something the Rangers wanted for their fans and their players.
